That's the way to go. :upvote:

I completely agree.
When we were a rich country, then foreign aid was a good idea because it kept our allies on our side.
Unfortunately, we are heading toward becoming a poor country in many ways.
What money we have should be spent on us and our country, and I exclude all the illegal immigrants who we continue to pay for in our taxes.
I believe we should really push for a new government, and not the usual two: Conservative and Labour, as both are interested only in their own well-being at our expense.

From a former and senior foreign office contact I was once told its the 'Bung Fund' used to cross greasy foreign palms with. The 'British Council' are the front (a charity supposedly!)
